Open Access (OA) scholarship is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. OA publishing shifts the costs of content creation and distribution away from subscribers, so that OA scholarship is freely available to anyone worldwide with an internet connection - no subscription necessary. Open Access Week is a global event celebrating the benefits of free, immediate access to scholarship produced by the research community.
Rice library hosts events to promote research, inspire, explore, and connect the USI community on issues associated with research and learning.
Contact Peter Whiting, Scholarly Communication Librarian, for any questions that you have.
